I don't know much about secret lives. I don't have them much myself. I got an honesty habit, as complex to kick as any other habit. I know lies can go too far. Honesty can go too far. You can ruin whatever you like, however you like.
@brelfan See i could tell you are wiser than me. I just didn't want you saying the truth is always insulting, as it isn't. I see where you're coming from now.
when the immature jumping around of 'modern' music gets tiring, like junk food, then you can always count on good ol' wholesome love from LC, he's got your back
@iionthehorizon Everyone's entitled to an opinion. But I'm pretty good at truth. Maybe too good. You get too good at it, you carry it like a cross. And people jeer and spit. Your jobs, relationships, in trouble. That's why most people avoid it. On the other side, is the truth teller really doing anything noble? Sometimes, is the answer. Truth is used for selfish reasons. If I want to hurt you, the first thing I do is find something absolutely honest and throw it your way.
@brelfan Ok. Yet again, I don't agree with you. Lots of things can be manipulated to hurt. I can make a knife out of newspaper. You might be intelligent, doesn't mean everything you say is going to be.
@iionthehorizon You could make a knife of newspaper. Would be more like art than a tool. I could be intelligent and say stupid things. That's true. Not entirely pleasant to hear. In fact, you just used my trick. And you did it to piss me off. Not to enlighten me at all.
@brelfan Goodness, and nothing else but goodness will ever begin to patch, much less mend nor heal my lonely heart , although I am for feeling a little tiny bit less alone, now that I have read what you wrote. (life matters)
This has to be one of Leonard Cohen's most accessible songs. So much beauty and pain in the lyrics, but with a tune that wouldn't be out of place on an AOR FM station. Leonard Cohen is GOD.
I love the whole "10 new songs". Some of the most absorbing music I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Hypnotic, melodic, inspiring and deep. We're listening to it now, It's evening here, the mood is relaxed, red wine in hand.. awesome. Thanks Leonard. :-).
I have none words to deskribe that song, feeling,..... Leonard reminds me, that everyone has his own secret life, where is everithing as he wants.... I run to my secret life every time, when things go bad. Leonard you rule with your song in my lifeeeeee....... I LLOOOOVEEE YOUUUU AND YOURR MUUUSIC WITH YOUR SIGHT ON THE SOUL AND LIFEEEE:.... MWWAAA
Leonard cohen is a legend check out his greatest hits cd from the 60's and 70's, and he still got it he is a legend, this is who bob dylen looked up to, he is the real deal thanks for bringing true music to us thanks.......PAPPA POT.
I was 13 when I first heard Leonard Cohen, I remember sitting in my grandparents kitchen listening to AM radio because they didn't have cable tv and there was nothing on but religious programing.
Hallelujah came on the radio and I thought, great, I can't get away from this and the song took me to another place.
25 years later I still love his music and it still entrances me, I can't believe an artist can consistently put out quality material like Leonard does.
I've just started listening to Cohen and the more I listen ... the more I want to hear. Just gets ahold of ya and won't let go. What an incredible, amazing talent. I'm almost embarassed that it's taken me this long to realize his immense talent. Can't get enough now that I'm here.
melodia asta ma reprezinta in totalitate.....fara cuvinte si direct la suflet!chiar si la batranete o voi asculta cu mare placere si cu multa melancolie!felicitari Leonard ca ai reusit sa transpui tot ce altii nu au indraznit!
Minunat, imi pare rau ca nu l-am vazut cind a fost la noi !!!Clipul mi se pare putin prea "futurist", pentru genul asta de muzica, e o parere personala !!!
Leonard Cohen is so overlooked, People do not appreciate the stories that unfold with this poetic words strewn in such a beautiful array. Living legend.
If your listening Leonard , your the best ever , thx for your music , godbleesss you friend from Edmonton, ALta, your a poet , till the end of survival
This is one of the saddest songs and one of the best videos.
I remember listening to this when I was little, my mother used to play it from time to time, and it always reminds me of everything sad in life, but in a wonderful way.
It makes all my troubles surface, but makes them so unimportant there isn't really room to care.
But I know what is wrong, and I know what is right..and I die for the truth..In my secret life..In my secret life you are here with me, in my secret life the birds are so free..And I am so lost, I am so alone, but you are touching my hand, in my secret life..:-)
The same here, Shanna. I listened this album for the first time in 2003 and i still dont have enough of it. I am sorry i was too cheap to buy a ticket when Leonard came to Romania.
Pure love.....carnt wait for my fella to get home..
